If you’re on the streets of New York in the Marvel universe, you don’t want to get roughed by Luke Cage because he’ll make you feel bad about hurting the community, you don’t want to get webbed up by Spider-Man because he’ll talk your ear off with bad jokes, and you don’t want to get beat up by Daredevil because…
The pandemic is still going on, there’s no hope on the horizon, and the movie theater industry is going to be destroyed if things don’t change, but also it’s not necessarily safe to go to a movie theater and the government has no interest in helping anyone but Donald Trump and his rotten family, so the only way movie…
Adam Sandler didn’t get the Oscar nod he deserved for his performance in Uncut Gems, meaning he’ll soon be forced to deliver the “so bad on purpose” movie he promised. (“But...Hubie Halloween,” you declare, to which we reply, “Ray Liotta cackling in a clown wig.”) Might Hustle, his upcoming team-up with LeBron James,…
On this day, the 26th of October, a short video began to trend on YouTube. It carries with it an innocuous, all-too-familiar title: “Earn $20K EVERY MONTH by being your own boss.” Now, we’re fairly internet-literate; we know a ridiculous attempt at building an influencer brand by promising something impossible and…
It is, at the moment, very difficult to keep track of all the things we should and/or conceivably could be worried about. (This year we probably don’t have to fret about razor blades in apples and rat poison in candy; we should, however, be concerned about whether or not your mask is covering your nose, Sharon.)…
Determined to give us everything but a long deserved Kazaam sequel, Shaquille O’Neal is gearing up to lend his voice to another youthful adventure. Per The Hollywood Reporter, Shaq’s Garage will place the basketball legend’s personal fleet of anthropomorphic vehicles at the center of the action series. Sure, that…
It may be a little redundant to have a Horrors Week in 2020, but here we are with our annual celebration of all things creepy, crawly, and heart-racing.
Morgan Pehme and Daniel DiMauro, directors of The Swamp, a Kushner-focused episode of Dirty Money, and 2017's Roger Stone documentary/accidental Frankenstein reboot, have done a lot of work documenting the rogues’ gallery who currently control the American government. Now, despite thinking he “was done making movies…
Hot on the heels of The Vow comes two new true crime documentaries from HBO Max, who appear to grasp just how comforting stories of real-life brutality are for a spiraling populace.
Last week, after months of somehow operating despite an obvious lack of interest from basically everyone with a phone, Quibi’s creators finally decided to pull the plug. Would Quibi have succeeded if it hadn’t launched during a global pandemic? Probably not. But at least we have this hilarious story penned by Joel…
Netflix is kicking off the lamest Halloween week in the whole entire history of ever with a spooky lil treat: a teaser for the final chapter of Chilling Adventures Of Sabrina. The fourth season is set to premiere on New Year’s Eve, and if we’re at all lucky in the slightest, we’ll be far too happy-drunk on democracy…
Kazakhstan’s been resisting, rejecting, and rolling its eyes at Sacha Baron Cohen’s satirical depiction of the country since Borat was merely a supporting character on Da Ali G Show. Now, following the release of Borat Subsequent Moviefilm, the board of tourism is throwing up its hands and leaning into the free press. …
A deal between Santa Claus and the United States government has fallen through. A report published in the Wall Street Journal yesterday details the end of a plan that would have saved Christmas from the nasty green Grinch-fingers of the coronavirus pandemic by offering mall Santas across the country the opportunity to…
We feel you, tiny adorable screaming children in the soundtrack above. It’s been a real deuce of a year. A six-part docuseries from Apple TV+ is not going to change that, but there’s a non-zero chance that beautifully shot footage of adorable children from around the world learning to speak and question and run and…
As Last Week Tonight host and sewage plant namesake John Oliver put it in his report on the asylum process in Donald Trump’s America, “focused, dedicated, and deeply resourceful” aren’t words you’d generally apply to anything Donald Trump has ever done. Sadly, as Oliver lays out in his typically searing 20-minute main…
In the comics, one of the great gimmicks of the Suicide Squad books (especially early on) was that characters died all the time. Before Harley Quinn came along and became the star of every Suicide Squad comic, waiting to see who would die was basically the whole thing. David Ayer’s movie paid lip service to that with…
Rapper Offset was reportedly pulled from his car and detained by police in Beverly Hills yesterday after an attendee at a pro-Trump rally said that someone in Offset’s car had pointed a gun at them (he was driving with Marcelo Almánzar, Cardi B’s cousin). Offset wasn’t arrested or charged, but he did manage to get on…
Earlier this summer, Mystery Science Theater 3000 creator (and original host) Joel Hodgson reunited with Bill Corbett (Crow T. Robot) and J. Elvis Weinstein (Tom Servo) for some new shorts as part of a fundraiser to help rebuild facilities owned by Minneapolis-based Native American youth organization MIGIZI that were…
